What year was the first time a majority of Canadians were able to afford adequate food, shelter, and clothing?

1951
1945
1970
1927

The correct answer is: 1951

During the early 1900s, Canada underwent significant economic and social changes that resulted in increased living standards for the majority of its citizens. Prior to this, poverty and high living costs were major issues for Canadians. By 1951, a majority of Canadians were able to afford adequate food, shelter, and clothing. Option B, 1945, is incorrect because this year was in the aftermath of World War II, when Canada was still facing economic challenges and high living costs due to the war. Option C, 1970, is also incorrect as by this time, economic and social changes had already improved living standards for Canadians. Option D, 1927, is incorrect because during this time, Canada was facing the Great Depression, which caused widespread poverty and a decrease in living standards for Canadians.
